Details

On an Autumn evening, one of the Newton Heath allocated well-appointed and stylish Swindon built Cross-Country Class 120 DMU's, with Driving Motor Second Lavatory M51588 leading, coupled to a class 104 set, passes Salwick with a Blackpool North to Manchester Victoria service on October 29th 1983. Just visible through the bridge is Salwick station then complete with its Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway island platform canopy. On the extreme left is the cobbled access road to the former goods yard. This stretch of railway once had four running lines in the days when the three Blackpool stations were busy with express, residential and a prodigious amount of excursion traffic.
